Adding cigarette lighter port
Is it possible to add a cigarette lighter port to the left of the one that is here? Even a usb would be fine.

Also how much could one cigarette port charge? I have my dash cam plugged in so could I add a usb splitter to charge multiple phones?

As for how much, that outlet is on a 15 Amp fuse. 15 Amps x 12 Volts = 180 Watts. A normal cell phone USB charger uses like 10 watts.

Perfect solution! I was planning on rewireing stuff but that is great!
